“Absolutely fantastic sitter. Her and her family took amazing care of my girls. She kept me updated daily and even sent me pictures of all the adventures they had. My dogs are my only family and finding someone to care for them in my absence is very stressful. Elisa took all the stress away and showed my girls all the love I would have. Would 1000% recommend to anyone that is looking for a loving home for their fur babies. Thank you Elisa! I will be booking again soon”
“Kevin was amazing with my 2 dogs he took excellent care of them. I LOVED that he sent pictures of my 2 babies daily to show how they were doing and how comfortable they were. His home was definitely pet friendly and very very clean and organized. The back yard was fenced in so the dogs could roam around and have fun. You can definitely tell Kevin loves animals. I would highly recommend Kevin.”
“We loved Polly and Emmet was very calm when we picked him up from his stay with her. He’s a very anxious dog and Polly was so attentive and sweet and made him feel safe. She sent tons of feedback during his stay and we will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Stephanie and Elizabeth were great! I was pretty worried about leaving my 6 mo puppy with a sitter for the first time ever, but they kept me updated (with pics!) and were very attentive to my little guy’s needs. He even whined when we drove away after I picked him up so I know he had a great time! I would definitely recommend.”
“Marlene took my 2 huskies on to board overnight on short notice and took excellent care of them. She was very accommodating to the one’s anxiety and was very attentive. I would definitely recommend using her services 😊”
“Sarah and Aaron made our little King Charles feel like the Princess she believes herself to be, and she was very happy during her 15-day stay with them. They sent regular updates showing her daily life, and they did a great job keeping up with her heart medication. Our Dani will stay with Aaron and Sarah again and again.”
“My dog is super high anxiety and he was so calm around Lisbeth on the scariest day of the year (4th of July). Normally we can’t leave Richie home alone because of his separation anxiety but with it being the 4th of July, he definitely couldn’t be alone as he is terrified of fireworks. Lisbeth was great and has such a calming energy about her that she was able to keep Richie chill all night long. I would recommend her to literally anyone. She’s great with animals; they just love her and you can tell and she loves them too!!”
“Linda is obviously a dog lover. My boy received excellent care during His week with her. Linda communicated regularly, letting us know how Our boy was doing, which was very reassuring. I highly recommend Linda’s services. She was wonderful.”
“great last minute "save" for us when we needed to leave home for 10+ hours ... Sam was able to come over and feed/walk our girl... while we were out...”
“Pam did an amazing job watching our Lily for 2 weeks. Lily came home very happy and Pam even gave her a nice bath and brush before we picked her up. she was very attentive to her needs. Thank you Pam for taking such great care of our Lily Girl🐾”
“We are forever grateful to have found Tami in our search for a safe, loving, caring environment to watch our beloved dogs. Tami is an absolute joy with a warm and infectious personality that our dogs felt immediately comfortable with. She provided the utmost amount of care, love and attention to our two dogs who absolutely felt right at home from the moment they walked into in her loving home. For reference we have two 70-80ish pound dogs that can absolutely play like rowdy, rumble and tumble brothers at times and Tami handled them with understanding and experience. Our dogs loved her two sweet female dogs and they all played together well. Kind and informative updates were provided to us while we were away on vacation complete with photos and videos of our sweet boys showcasing their level of happiness! We couldn’t be more grateful for you! Thank you a million times over! We know Declan and Zeus can’t wait to see you again! And, we as pet parents are over the moon having the peace of mind that we finally found a safe, loving pet lover to watch our dogs. Zeus & Declan say thank you and miss you already! With our forever thanks, Stephanie & Daniel! ❤️”
About: I have always been an animal lover. Growing up, I always had at least two dogs in the house with me. My parents always instilled never ending love for the family pets into me and nothing make me more comfortable than a furry friend by my side. I also spent some time working for a dog boarding facility in my hometown of Wichita, Kansas. While loving every minute of it, I would like to pursue that feeling again by working for Rover and taking excellent care of your furry friend. I work full-time at a local high school as a coach. My schedule is open in various slots in the day for dog care, and my job allows me to take care of any tasks I need to throughout the day as long as my work is not affected. I am usually off work by 5:30 pm and live just minutes away from work. I also do not work on weekends, so those days are full of opportunity. In your home, I will make sure the pets are safe and getting as much love, attention, and playtime as they deserve! When on walks, I will ensure they are a safe distance from vehicles and that they are cleaned up after.
